arghhh lost my job...now what?

After over 5 years EDS has decided they no longer need my services, they have a very strange way of making people redudant, they use a scoring sheet (much like a performance review) and decide who is the least skilled in the group (in my case 50 people) so the last 5 in this case were made redudant.

We were given a chance to justify way we should keep out jobs, I was tempted just to argue some points (like how a can be given the lowest score for productivity when I closed more cases then anyone else in the team?)
But the truth is I really didn't wanna be there anymore anyway. So I have to wait out 5 weeks now while they pretend to try and find me another position.

So like 12 months ago I am looking at going to london, Ali's parents are going to europe and will be living in France for a month and its looking like we should be able to stay with them. So my plan now it to leave for london in early may and try and find a short term position and look around, then meet them in July

Hope fully this we give us both a diffrent outlook on things and reliase that there are bigger and better things then sleepy old Adelaide
